The Irish rover was the first federal exploration vehicle designed as a prototype for a future lunar exploration vehicle but instead of dropping it on the moon did they drop it on earth, Ireland, before the progress was shut down and declared a success by both the royal and federal navy and the royal science advisory as it not only were able to traverse the Irish countryside but also send back several pictures.

With a camera and instruments to take soil samples and readings of the atmosphere so did the rover prove itself able to travel on it's own as well as take readings of the air. However after two weeks did the rover shut down and open itself to expose a bottle of whisky to the man finding it.

The probe took about 100 pictures of the countryside, old buildings and people proving it's ability to store pictures and transfer it back home which made the royal science advisory certain that they would be able to repeat the feat with a lunar expedition.
